Getting ready...

for Valentine's Day!!

I know it will surprised no one when I say we had a very "Valentiney" day last year.


Cinnamon Rolls with HOT PINK frosting, RED strawberries and a PINK shake for breakfast.

Pasta, grilled chicken and RED sauce for lunch.

RED Pepperoni pizza (a bit of a tradition for us, not sure where it started), a salad with extra RED tomatoes, PURPLE onions & RED peppers and RED juice for dinner.

Dessert was Oreo cookie pie with RED, PINK and PURPLE sprinkles.

I will remind you that we are focusing on the VALENTINEY colors... NOT the carb-over load my family received.

I am planning this years meals now. Well, aside from pizza for dinner... again, it's tradition!

I am searching for "manly" pictures to put on my boys shirts. Yes, I am making them shirts. I think it will be the last year they will let me. Boo. Last year I bought them some.


I know, I am the cheesest mom EVER. I am OK with that.

I ♥ love!

I have had SO much fun playing this year.
I still have a HUGE to do list, but I am slowly ticking items off.

I don't have to say how much I adore The Wood Connection.
(I do. SO MUCH!) Most of my projects (OK, all) came from them.

So... wanna see??


I love black and red for V-Day. Plain, simple, black and red.


"I ♥ U"


Love this Cherry Red Glittery Heart!


AH! Puppy love. Who doesn't remember writing A+H or A♥H all over their notebooks? When did that stop? I had to bring it back and I am glad I did. Love it!


LOVE how these 3 hearts turned out!! I found them at the DI for $1!! (I wasn't sad to paint over the blue and mauve. Not at all.)


I could never leave out the dangles...


I failed in getting pictures of my ornaments. My camera broke. Boo! Think of the dangles, but on a shelf :).

I have slacked at posting the last few months. Need an excuse? I started an Etsy shop (which I have to admit I don't love. I like playing, but add in the pressure of pleasing someone else, mixed with a time frame and the fun is gone for me.), have 3 kiddos, a sick father in law and no one really reads this. But I like a place to organize my crafts... vent a time or two... plus I follow/stalk A LOT of blogs. It is part of my daily routine. I am just fine with this arrangement.
